Drinking Water Source Protection Program
Drinking Water Source Assessment Program
(DWSAP)
The NH Department of Environmental Services
established its Drinking Water Source Assessment
Program as part of its Drinking Water Source
Protection Program to help improve protection of
public water supply sources. The DWSAP will do this
by providing information about the vulnerability of
each of the approximately 2,950 public water supply
sources in the state. This information is being
provided in the form of assessment reports (one for
each public water supply source) to public water
suppliers and the general public. While DES was
required by the Federal
Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996 to
have this program, it did have some discretion as
to how the information was gathered to prepare the
assessment reports. DES's approach, described in
detail in its DWSAP Plan, was approved by the USEPA in May 1999.
